Minister Lončar said that in the next few hours, the medical part of the crisis staff will explain in writing each proposed measure, and then it will be considered which of them is legally feasible to implement.

The minister pointed out that the virus entered the family and that is a big difference from the previous period.
“Let’s not philosophize, the only way to avoid it is to cut contact. There is no other way to stop the numbers,” Loncar said.
